You sicken me. Video Games don't all have to be ultra-violent, generic war shooters.

And to answer your question, I like Mario games because they're fun. Yes, they look rather childish and silly, but they're some of the best games ever made when it comes to simple fun factor. I'm 14- just a year older than you- but I seem to have much better tastes than you, which makes me worried.

Since most FPS games are generic, I find a lacking in replay value, regardless what GI says. Making it harder doesn't make it anymore enjoying. And replaying an FPS game on a harder difficulty, doesn't make it much more difficult. You're experienced with the game previously, changing the difficulty doesn't make it that much harder.

99% of FPS games I play, I play right away at normal or hard. They're easy.

mario is simple. Jump,run, jump on enemies heads. an easy enough formula,but it was one of the first games of its kind and it worked well. and even tough you cant ''BLOW STUFF UP",its still got the qualities of an excellent game. good controls, easily recognizeable characters, varied level designs,and with each new game, improve upon what you've already done in the last game and add something new. kind of like the modern warfare or halo series.
